This ties in with another discussion. I worked in a service station back in the 1960s that the owner, a WW II vet, kept a Walther P38. The P38 was parkerized too, but the owner told me that he had that done to it when he was still in the service. So perhaps the Luger you saw had also been a war trophy that a GI had parkerized?
